Kounelas Fish Tavern

A traditional fish taverna tucked into the lanes behind the Old Port, run by a fishing family for generations. Grilled fish, fried calamari and no view — just the food.

Kounelas is the Chora fish taverna people recommend when asked where they actually eat. The catch comes from the family's own boats, the cooking is simple — grilled, fried, in a salad — and the courtyard is plain. The prices are among the fairest for seafood in town.

It is a few minutes' walk from the Old Port boat quay, which makes it a natural dinner after an evening cruise returns.
